This paper presents an analytical investigation of the free vibrations of a cracked Timoshenko beam made up of functionally graded materials (FGMs). It is assumed that the beam is constructed of FGM materials with a power law variation of metal-ceramic volume fraction. The perspective of wave method is adopted for the analysis. The method considers the nature of the propagation and reflection of the waves along the beam. Consequently, the propagation, transmission and reflection matrices for various discontinuities located on the beam are derived. Such discontinuities may include crack, boundaries or change in section. By combining these matrices a global frequency matrix is formed. In order to investigate the effect of the beam’s structural synthesis, different natural frequencies are obtained and studied. Keywords

INTRODUCTION Cracked structures have always attracted significant interest by researchers. Cracks in a structural element can reduce the natural frequencies and change the vibration mode shapes due to local flexibility introduced by the crack. The dynamics of cracked structural members, especially beams, has been the subject of many research works due to growing interest in non-destructive damage evaluation of engineering structures using modal responses (natural frequencies and mode shapes) of a structure in the past two decades. Numerous attempts to quantify local defects are reported in the literature. In general, there exist three basic crack models, namely the equivalent reduce section model, the local flexibility model from fracture mechanics and the continuous crack flexibility model [1]. One of the most common approaches is the finite element method where the key point is to define the stiffness matrix as the inverse of the compliance matrix [2]. To establish the local flexibility of the beam due to the presence of a crack the method of finite element and fracture mechanics are employed.

FGMs are the novel class of macroscopic composites with spatially continuous materials which have attracted considerable research efforts over the past few years due to their increasing applications in many engineering sectors [3]. The technique of grading ceramics along with metals initiated by the Japanese material scientist in Sendai has marked the beginning of exploring the possibility of using FGMs for various structural applications [3]. Numerous studies have been conducted on FGM beams, plate and shell structures, dealing with a variety of subjects such as thermal stresses [4], fracture analysis [5, 6], static bending [7], free vibration and dynamic responses [8], buckling and postbuckling [9], piezo-thermo-elastic behavior [9] and so on. A literature review shows that there are quite a few papers presenting crack and fracture analyses of FGM structures. Another aspect of this study is the vibration analysis. Various approaches have been applied in vibration analysis of cracked beams. Such approaches include finite element approach [10], Galerkin and local Ritz approach [11], approximate analytical approach [12], transfer matrix approach [13] and dynamic stiffness matrix approach [14]. Among the specific works done in this area one can point to the paper by J. Yang et al. [15] which provides an analytical study of free and forced vibration of inhomogeneous Euler-Bernoulli beams containing open edge cracks. In their analysis the beam is assumed to be subjected to an axial compressive force and a concentrated transverse load moving along the longitudinal direction. Over the years, many analytical techniques have been developed for treating wave propagation problems. Central among these is the method of Fourier synthesis or the spectral analysis [16], where the behavior of the signal is viewed as a superposition of many infinitely long wave trains of different periods. Moreover Sridhar et al. [17] studied the wave propagation analysis in anisotropic and inhomogeneous structures using pseudospectral finite element method. Graff [18] studied the free vibrations of a cracked Timoshenko beam from the wave standpoint in which the vibrations are described in terms of wave propagation, transmission and reflection in waveguides. The reflection and transmission characteristics of flexural vibration waves have been studied by a number of researchers (e.g., see [19]) and the reflection and transmission matrices for various discontinuities on a cracked

Timoshenko beam have also been derived by Mei et al. [20]. Ke et al. [21] studied the free vibration and elastic buckling of FGM beams containing open edge cracks based on Timoshenko beam theory. In this paper, the free vibration of a FGM cracked Timoshenko beam is investigated by using the wave method. The beam is constructed by using FGM materials with a power law variation of metal-ceramic volume fraction. The application of power law variation of material properties is mainly dependent on its usual usage in industrial applications. The crack is modeled by a rotational spring. Also, the matrices of wave method are derived for the various types of probable discontinuities which may locate on the beam by using the equations of motion for the FGM Timoshenko beam. Such discontinuities include cracks, boundaries and change in section. These matrices can be combined to provide a concise and systematic approach to free vibration analysis of FGM cracked Timoshenko beams. Based on the devised model, typical parametric analyses are performed and the influence of different discontinuities on the beam upon the natural frequencies is studied. The results are provided to examine the effects of crack depth, crack location, total number of cracks, slenderness ratio, change of section and change of power law index of the material property distribution on the vibration characteristics of the cracked FGM Timoshenko beam. 2.
MATHEMATICAL FORMULATIONS It is intended to determine the natural frequencies of a cracked FGM Timoshenko beam with dimensions l, b and h as the length, width and height of the beam, respectively, and a as the depth of an edge crack, as depicted in Figure 1. It is assumed that the material is isotropic, and the grading is assumed to be only through the thickness. 2.1. Displacement Field and Strains Here the FGM beam will be studied within the framework of the first-order shear deformation beam theory. The displacement field of the beam may be represented as u(x, y, z, t) = u(x, t) + zψ(x, t), w(x, y, z, t) = w(x, t).
v(x, y, z, t) = 0, (1)
In Eq. (1) the rotation function ψ (about the y axis) and the transverse displacement w are functions of the longitudinal
coordinate x and time t and z denotes the thickness coordinate. Also u(x, t) represents the axial displacement component of the middle surface of the beam. It is to be noted that for transverse vibration of the beam u(x, t) can be neglected throughout the analysis. The linear strain-displacement relations of elasticity are given by [22] ∂ψ , εy = εz = 0, ∂x ∂w . = ψ+ ∂x
εx = z γxz
γxy = γyz = 0, (2)
2.2. Constitutive Relations Consider a functionally graded beam, which is made from a mixture of ceramics and metals. It is assumed that the composition properties of FGM vary through the thickness of the beam. The variation of material properties can be expressed as p(z) = (pt − pb ) Vt + pb ,
(3)
where p denotes a generic material property like modulus and pt and pb denote the corresponding properties of the top and bottom faces of the beam, respectively. Also Vt in Eq. (3) denotes the volume fraction of the top face constituent and follows a simple power-law as Vt = (z/ h + 1/2)n where h is the total thickness of the beam, z is the thickness coordinate (−h/2 ≤ z ≤ h/2), and n (0 ≤ n ≤ ∞) is a parameter that dictates the material variation profile through the thickness. Here we assume that moduli E and G and density ρ vary according to Eq. (3) and the Poisson’s ratio ν is assumed to be a constant. The linear constitutive relations are ⎫ ⎡ ⎧ ⎤⎧ ⎫ Q11 Q12 0 ⎪ ⎬ ⎨ σx ⎪ ⎨ εx ⎬ ⎥ ⎢ σy = ⎣ Q12 Q22 0 ⎦ εy , ⎪ ⎭ ⎪ ⎩ ⎭ ⎩ γxy 0 0 Q66 σxy Q44 0 γyz σyz = , (4) 0 Q55 σxz γxz where Q11 = Q22 =

In Eqs. (6) a dot over displacement components indicates partial differentiation with respect to temporal variable t. The boundary conditions consist of specifying w or Qx and ψ or Mx at x = 0 and x = L. Upon substitution of Eqs. (4) into Eqs. (7), the force and moment resultants in terms of displacement components will be obtained which can be presented as follows:

By solving this equation a set of wave numbers are derived that are functions of the frequency ω as well as the properties of structure and are in the form of ±K1 and ±K2 . Waves in the beam travel in both positive and negative directions as the ± sign before K1 and K2 indicates. Now with the time dependence eiωt suppressed, the solution to Eq. (10) can be written as

THE PROPAGATION, REFLECTION AND TRANSMISSION OF WAVES From a wave standpoint, vibrations propagating along a beam component are reflected and transmitted upon discontinuities and boundaries. The propagation is governed by the so-called propagation matrix. Consider two points A and B on a flexurally vibrating uniform beam at distance x apart. Denoting the positive and negative-going wave vectors at points A and B as a+ and a− , and b+ and b− , respectively, they are related by

3.2. Crack In this study, the local flexibility model from finite element method and fracture mechanics are adapted. Cracks could be open or breathing (open and close in time), depending on the loading conditions and vibration amplitudes. The open crack model is valid throughout this paper. To this aim after calculating the value of stress intensity factor by using ANSYS software, the strain energy release rate can be derived by J =G=
K2 , Etip
(28)
where Etip is the modulus of elasticity of the FGM beam at the crack tip and K and J are the stress intensity factor and the strain energy release rate, respectively. Also we have

3.3. Change in Section Consider two beams of different properties are joined at x = 0 as shown in Figure 4. Due to impedance mismatching, incident waves from one beam give rise to reflected and transmitted waves at the junction. The reflection and transmission matrices can then be obtained from the continuity and equilibrium conditions. Denoting the parameters related to the incident and transmitted sides of the junction with subscripts L and R, respectively, choosing the origin at the point where the sections changes, at x = 0 we have w L = wR ,

The reflection and transmission matrices for the waves run into various types of discontinuities can be combined to provide a concise and systematic approach for the vibration analysis of FGM Timoshenko beams with various discontinues. 4.
NUMERICAL RESULTS The solution procedure outlined in the previous section is applied to the free vibration of three functionally graded beams. One is a cantilevered cracked beam and the second one is a cantilevered cracked stepped beam and the next one is a multiple edge cracked cantilever FGM beam. It is assumed that the lower surface of the beam is rich of ceramic and the top surface is rich of metal. The mechanical properties of the metal and ceramic are given in Table 1 [23]. The length-to-thickness ratio or slenderness ration (i.e., L/ h) is assumed to be 25 in all numerical examples. Also the total thickness of the plate (h) is considered to be 0.04 m.

with different material constant n. Clearly, as the a/ h ratio is increased the numerical value of the compliance is also increased accordingly. 4.2. Example 1.

The incident and reflected waves at the clamped boundary A, the left and right hand sides of the crack discontinuity, B and the free end side, C are denoted by − + − + + a+ , a− , b+ 1 , b1 , b2 , b2 , c and c , respectively.

The values of the natural frequencies are obtained through a computer program written in MATLAB. The first three natural frequencies of the FGM beam with the power law index 2 (i.e., n = 2) are listed in Table 2 and compared with the results obtained by using ANSYS software. Figures 7a, 7b and 7c show the first three natural frequencies of the cracked FGM beam down to various crack locations with crack ratio µ = 0.3 and various values of n. Also the first mode shape of the cracked FGM beam with n = 2 and the crack location at x = L/2 for different values of µ are shown in Figure 7d. To verify the validity of the solution developed in this paper, in a special case the material is assumed to be homogeneous and the solution is compared with that given by Mei et al. [20]. The physical properties of the material are chosen as those in [20] which are listed in Table 3. It is assumed that the crack is located in three different locations, x = 0.3L, x = 0.5L and x = 0.8L with the same crack ratio µ = 0.3. The present results are tabulated in Table 4. It is seen that there is excellent agreement between the present results and those of Mei [20]. Figure 8 shows the effects of crack depth ratio a/ h and slenderness ratio L/ h on the first natural frequency of the beam. The results indicate that natural frequency is decreased as the crack depth ratio and slenderness ratio are increased. Figure 9 shows the effects of crack depth ratio on the first three natural frequencies of the sample beam once the crack is located at x = 0.5L. The results reveal that in general natural frequency is decreased as the depth of crack is increased. However, if the crack is located on the node of a vibrating mode shape of an un-cracked beam, it is found from the obtained results that, the crack has no effect on the respected natural frequency of the beam.

For a non-trivial solution the determinant of the coefficient matrix must vanish. From this condition the natural frequencies of the beam can be found. In this example, a crack located at x = L/3 and step change is assumed at x = 2L/3. Figure 11 shows the first two natural frequencies of the beam corresponding to various crack depth and various values of n. It is seen that both frequencies are decreased with increasing the crack depth ratio. 4.4. FIG. 10.
Example 3. A Multiple Edge Cracked Cantilever Beam In this example the vibration characteristics of a cantilever FGM beam with six cracks are studied. The analysis follows the same procedure as described in the first Example. In this case the cracks are located at points A, B, C, D, E, F and G and the phenomena of wave reflection and transmission are repeated at

The first three natural frequencies of the cracked beam. (a) first, (b) second and (c) third natural frequencies.
Figure 12 shows the first three natural frequencies of the beam down to various crack depths and various values of n. It is seen that by increasing the crack depth ratio, all the first three frequencies are decreased. 5.
CONCLUSIONS An analytical approach based on the wave method is presented to study the free vibrations of a FGM Timoshenko beam with various types of structural discontinuities. To this ends, within the framework of the first-order shear deformation beam theory and by using Hamilton’s principle, equations of motion are obtained. Henceforward, the matrices of the wave method are derived for various discontinuities such as the cracks, boundaries and the change in cross section. The effect of crack presence is modeled by a rotational spring and an equivalent stiffness factor is estimated and used accordingly. It is shown through
numerical examples that by introducing the propagation, reflection and transmission matrices, the process of vibration analysis become systematic and concise. The results confirm that the natural frequency of a cracked beam is reduced by increasing its crack depth ratio. Also it is shown that the location of crack and the power low index have significant effects on the natural frequencies of the beam. Especially it is shown that the more the slenderness factor of a beam the less its natural frequency. REFERENCES 1. A.D. Dimarogonas, Vibration of Cracked Structure, Eng.
